Whether it's ice skating at the Inner Harbor or strolling through the snow-laden Patterson Park, or sipping some hot cocoa on the Washington Monument as it's all lit up for the holidays.
We could go on and on about the great things here in Baltimore, but there is a soloist here, Christmas is a little different for her.
Our next soloist grew up in Las Vegas, Nevada, where a 100 degree Christmas is not rare.
But it never stopped her from celebrating the season.
Here to tell us all about her “Winter Things,” please welcome Sgt.

I mean, we're impressed every single time.
Now here's something even more impressive.
They don't know this, so don't go telling them.
I got a little secret.
All of them, each and every one, are on Santa's nice list.
They made the nice list.
It's amazing.
So now the spotlight is on you.
Reflect a little bit.
Remember, Santa is in the house right now.
So is the Army.
Have you been nice, or have you been I don't know, a little naughty?
Now we have a way to tell and so why waste any more time?
And let's just see who's been naughty and who has been nice.
Yes you!
You are nice.
It surprised you.
This shouldn't be surprising.
Nice list, I love it.
Who else do we have here?
Who's on the nice list?
Get off the phone Sir, you're on the nice list.
Now listen, all the time there are nice people there are also some naughty people.
Aww don't blame the beard!
We had to.
I love the beard, man.
But you did something, so naughty list.
[laughs] Also, there might be others on the naughty list, I presume.
Yes.
I'm sorry Auntie.
You made the naughty list this year.
Listen, you got next year.
We can plan.
She is on the naughty list?
Hey.
I'm sorry.
I did not choose these.
You are not, you are not on Naughty List.
Listen, you have time to make things better.
Get her off.
She's not on naughty list.
There we go.
Someone nice.
There, much better.
Yes, don't be so shocked.
You have plenty of time to change things around if you need to.
Oh, wait.
He's, I'm sorry, sir.
You're not.
No way.
He's got way too many stripes for me.
Listen, we'll move on, because I'm.
I'm scared of him.
Did you know the Army and rock and roll have a long-standing relationship in the North Pole?
This is true.
In fact, the holiday classic, the [uh] “Run, Run Rudolph”?
Well it was written as part of a running playlist when Rudolph was training for the Army Ten-Miler.
This is not a lie!
It is true.
And this thing is, sadly, you know, Rudolph he suffered from shin splints in mile four.
I mean, it was really sad.
He was setting a record pace.
It's amazing!
I mean, he was blazing through he gets the end and people are like, “Rudolph, like, who is training you?” “What Preakness thoroughbred got you to run so fast?” And Rudolph sort of limped and he says, “no, no, no training necessary.
I was elf-taught.” See the joke?
See, the joke is, see?
So it's usually “self-taught.” I took the “s” off and made it “elf-taught.” [drum fill] The joke was better yesterday, honestly.
So let's move on and get rid of me here.
I bet you have never heard “Carol of the Bells” quite like this.
